locked the throne room.

Tinderbox - Walk
forward and the goblin appears. He advises to find the magic glow but first the tinderbox.

Walk a bit and when you
get a close up of Hans Christian turn to the armor standing on the wall. The
open door icon is seen at top right of the screen.

Open the secret door. Go
through the secret door and see that this is the path behind the wooden door
where the bulldogs were visited.

Turn to the left and
pick up the tinderbox.

The goblin appears and
he advises to go to the throne room. Also he says that the Dark Lord has
bewitched the throne room and the way there would be difficult.

Go back through the
wooden door and out through the armor door.

Find the throne room
- Go down, left and up to the next door.

Go forward and meet the
King. On the floor, see different pictured tiles.

Since the first stone
secret door encountered had a lion head, take the lion corridor.

Continue to walk and at
the end of the corridors, see 3 doors. Enter through the middle lion door.

Continue forward until
you see a troll. Take a look at the pictured tiles on the floor.

Since the second stone
door encountered had the mermaid and cornucopia, take the mermaid with
cornucopia corridor.

Continue to take the
mermaid corridors whenever a new direction is needed.

At the end of the
corridor, see 3 doors. Enter through the left mermaid with cornucopia door.

Go forward until another
troll. Take a look at the pictured tiles on the floor.

Take all the crowned
swan corridors and enter through the swan door.

Saved game here!

Enter through the swan
door.

Magic Glow:
See that the Dark Lord is casting a spell on the Princess. The room is full of
trolls.

See the young girl that
has the magic glow at bottom right corner of the screen.

Go to the young girl
while evading the trolls. Place the magic glow at the center of the inventory at
top right of screen.

In my gameplay, I hugged
the left wall and then cross over to the right when I reached the bottom of the
screen.

I saved my game at every
clear path or change of screen.

The trolls will take
money from your purse at every encounter and you have to start by the door.

When the money is gone,
Hans Christian is at the corridor outside the throne room.

You can either go back
to the saved game or go down to the dogs to get more coins to fill your purse.

Use the tinderbox on the
young girl with the magic glow. The magic glow is placed inside the tinder box.

Go to the Princess and
Dark Lord.

You can either use the
tinder box on every troll on your path or go directly to the biggest troll and
use the tinderbox on it.

Then use the tinderbox
on the Dark Lord.

Watch what happens.

It ended as quickly as it started.

Hans Christian is destined for other great adventures.
